In the passed weekend, me and my wife have watched every video you have up. We had the best weekend ever. Thank you so much and keep it up, you got us hooked.regards Charles from Manitoba.
Cool knife, i will make one. Thanks for sharing!
Great knife and period also. I long for your cabin in the woods. More difficult life, but you appreciate everything more. Fed up with the world being too fast. Guess I'll have to start clearing a spot in the trees. Thanks for all your videos..............Ross
Very nice homemade crooked knife Billy, love the history you gave with it as well, I just bought a new one a few months ago....a peace of braided leather would look nice.....
Great use for an antler! Well done!
I made one with a deer antler handle many, many years ago. I gave it to my nephew on his 18th birthday.
Love your new studio! hahahahe! Great job on the knife! I love the little history capsule! Cheers! P
Good job!!
awesome loved the vid. keep up the great work.
love the crooked knife. the most useful tool for the woods, in my opinion. but I tend to hurt myself with it than my belt knife.
Super! Tu me donnes le goût d'essayer de m'en fabriquer un moi-même. Je me souviens que Paul Provencher en parlait dans "Vivre en Forêt".
Wow, you don't stop to impress me. Beautiful knife. Nice work on The blade. For the handle, I think traditionally they wrap the blade insert with moose nerves or "babiche". Show us the final result
Bonsoir Billy tres intéressant
Love the new studio! Nice knife too. :-)
Hiya Billy! When I was a kid, all the old fellas carrying crooked knives had twine wrapped around the top for inch or two... but those were of wood, so I assume they served a functional purpose. Either way, they look classic.
Yep, Dave Canterbury @ the pathfinder school just did a video on the crook-knife too. He is one of my hero's.
I made a knife/sheath a couple years ago with a piece of stainless (that broke off my truck, and a old leather boot). Your knife is much nicer than mine.
Killer studio billy( smiles) hope to see lots more of you with that rockstar backdrop. Great knife btw.
You are so! You very welcome
Pour la finition ma suggestion: un fil de laiton genre collet à lièvre sur 1 cm de large, pour entourer la base bien serré et collé.
I saw an old one with about 2 inches of steel wire. I think that was to strengthen the tang mostly.
Great work on the Crooked Knife Billy...cool studio too.
How about making a ferrule out of a piece of copper plumbing pipe? Pinned on with small copper tacks? Maybe a scolloped/frilled edge or some simple engraving? Of course nothing to effect the comfortable use of this hugely useful tool ;)
Thanks & warm wishes from the UK :)
Fun video. It's great fun translating it as you go. ;-)
hmm the reason you see most traditional Mocotaugan with a wrap is because the blades were not imbedded into the handle but on the outside of the handle fitted into a grooved slot and the wrap was lashing the blade to the handle.. I have researched these knives quite extensively.. I would wrap with sinew...

I sent you a friends request on facebook.. i can show you some pics there.. TH-cam doesn't let me post pics or links here..
Good job on the knife! Studios looking good also!
Enjoyed!
Pour garder le look authentique, pourquoi pas un enroulement de babiche autour de la pièce de cuir?
Funny and instructive video as usual!
Awesome Looking Mocotagen my friend......... I myself would got with the brass ring (as already mentioned), or actually might go with a nice wide, maybe 1/2- 3/4 of an inch wide Copper ring, I think the copper would give it some real character.
Want to buy Kroquet knive from Billy.
Before steel , beaver teeth were used for the blade
Salut Billy, je me demandais, supposons que tu as aiguisé ta lame avant de la courber, une fois complété, est-ce que tu aiguise la partie courbée avec une lime ronde (genre celle de scie mécanique) ? Merci de continuer de nous divertir et en passant, ton couteau est pas mal mieux réussi que celui que je mettais fait.
So I'm wondering how you bent that there file. That would be interesting to see. Thanks for sharing ...
I like the leather end. It will protect the material you are working with. Maybe boil the leather and polish it so it's not as soft.
Muito bom.
very nice Billy ! maybe wrap it in leather ?
atb john
Loved it! I have been thinking about getting one of these recently. I just watched a Ray Mears episode the other day where he was making a birch bark canoe with a crooked knife and it inspired me to look into getting one. I love that you made your own ! I built a small forge about a year ago, perhaps I should fire it up and try to make one myself. Oh and I love the new studio as well :D Thanks for sharing man! -Lochlainn
I would wrap the top with rawhide lace
Where did you get the blade? How did you keep the temper in it. More details on the cutting edge!!! Fun video, useful tool.
***** It won't be long now Billy, Carnival is just around the corner and once that is finished the winter will be on it's way out. Stay warm!!
brass, use the end of a shot gun shell to hilt the knife,,
Bonjours, j'aimerai savoir si tu vendais tes couteaux croches? Si oui, combien les vends-tu?
Merci pour tous tes videos billy. Ou puis je m'acheter un bon Crooked knife ??
Un plus tradionnel alors avec un manche standard. Avons nous des boutiques au Quebec ?
Merci pour la réponse, je vais continuer de visionner chacun de tes vidéos. Tu fais une excellente job sur l'information et la demonstration dans tes videos. Merci beaucoup.
Use copper wire and it will look good.
I whoud use some brass
Billie, your knife is crooked! Good for cutting around corners! Maybe for making spoons! Get a straight knife, they work better!
maybe a bit of silver would be cool ^^
